Thus, our model captures most task allocation problems that involve some form of temporal (i.e. deadline and time to complete a task) and spatial constraints (i.e. positions of agents and tasks) such as those existing in logistics planning or crew scheduling [7]. Given this, we define both optimal and approximate solutions for the problem. (ii) We develop a new DCOP formulation for the approximate

(iii) We show that our algorithm can complete 10% more tasks than the current best decentralized algorithm for this problem (on average) and requires up to 91% fewer messages and 99% less computation than the standard Max-Sum algorithm in order to converge to a A solution is a means that contributes to a crisis management function.

Two real cases used to test its applicability showed that different visualization techniques might be needed to support situation awareness.We have chosen two case studies that vary considerably in the number of information generated and they help also to illustrate potential visualization techniques that can be used to support data exploration. The visualization of the outcomes of this process plays a fundamental role in order to facilitate the interpretation by the operators.
